Tatyana Ivanovna Tomashova (Russian: Татьяна Ивановна Томашова) (born 1 July 1975 in Perm) is a Russian distance runner.
Career
At the 2000 Summer Olympics, she competed in the 5000 metres but participated in shorter races thereafter, mainly in the 1500 metres. She is a double world champion and double Olympic silver medallist in this event.
On 31 July 2008, Tomashova was suspended by the IAAF, along with six other Russian track and field athletes, for doping offences. She was charged under IAAF rules 32.2 (b) and 32.2 (e) for a "fraudulent substitution of urine which is both a prohibited method and also a form of tampering with the doping control process". She was set to compete in the 2008 Summer Olympics.[1][2]
On 20 October 2008, it was announced that Tomashova, along with six other Russian athletes would receive two-year doping bans for manipulating drug samples.[3]
She initially came fourth in the 1500 meters at the 2012 Summer Olympics. However, after doping offences by other athletes, she was promoted to the silver medal position.[4]
